PATIENCE, PERFECTED
Time spent with a dram of your favourite Speymhor Malt Whisky is never wasted.
While you savour those exquisite flavors, take a minute to contemplate why it tastes so fine.
For thousands of years the untamed wilds of the Highlands with their ever-changing landscape of rivers, moor and mountain and variable weather conditions - have all contributed to the varied and unique Whiskies created in these regions.
Then there are the all those decades of experience that the master distiller calls upon to achieve mastery of their craft.
Not forgetting all those years of maturation in carefully selected fine old oak casks. Which allows the characteristic colours and flavours of the Speymhor whiskies, that you adore, to be imparted.
Finally when the time is right, and the whisky is ready to be bottled, that's when Stuart and Graham give their nod and everyone's patience is rewarded.
It’s this quality that you’ll find in every bottle of our Speymhor collection. Each one perfectly captures the true spirit of the Highlands. Crack the top off any bottle, pour a wee dram and you’d probably say it is Scotch Whisky, perfected.
*mhor - (Scottish Gaelic) meaning; more, great, highly regarded
THE CASE FOR CASKS
It’s worth remembering that a cask is far more than just a receptacle for storing Whisky. It is during this time of maturation, that the Whisky takes 100% of its colour and much of its flavor from those wooden casks.
Naturally, it’s not just any old wood that is used - because you wouldn’t enjoy any old flavor.
